50 Cent Says New Album Is Done And Has No Fillers

[SG.]

50 Cent believes his new album could be as "special" as his breakthrough Get Rich Or Die Tryin.

The 36-year-old New Yorker achieved mainstream success with his 2003 debut after teaming up with superstars Dr Dre and Eminem.

He has since put out three more successful records while also building up acting and entrepreneurial careers.

50 Cent - real name Curtis Jackson - has not released an album since 2009 and is excited about his new record, which is set to be released in July.

"I think it's great - arguably as good as the first album. But music marks time, so we'll see if my timing is right," he said. "It's pretty much done. I don't want to shun opportunities (for people) to hear something that I feel is special, because I may out-do myself."

He added: "I'm excited because I took a lot longer this time and was a lot more calculated on this project. I'm saying what I really want to say to the general public as opposed to trying to just make the date and filling. There are no real album fillers on this, it's all stuff that I feel I need to have on this record."

Jackson remains tight-lipped about the title of the album.

"I haven't actually 'launched' the name for it," he said. "I know the name, but I haven't really put it out yet. I've got to figure out the right place to do it."

I had a shitty day today, now when I heard this I feel kinda happy again.

I'm 90% sure that Eminem will be on this album, I'm def buying this. But every song from the album will get leaked next month anyways.

haha yeah 50 always talks shit up in his interviews... which is understandable.. he wants to sell.. just saying. he seems to overhype his own shit every time.

No, Kanye sold more in US while overall, with worldwide records, Fif won.

[Kill You]

Yawn, the fans will be the ones to judge whether or not your album has fillers 50...you've said virtually the same thing about every album since your debut.

Really? Man, fuck America for never mentioning that.

[Drama Setter]

fuck a 50 ,he should have retired after that get rich or die crying shit

[Atone]

You ppl hate on 50 way to much really tho

i believe all his albums were really good in their own ways, each not sounding to much the same

[ShAdYTiLIDie]

Interesting, I'm looking forward to this one! I hope Em helped him out on it.

[Emadyville]

I can't say I'm excited other than that eminem hopefully will be on it. The massacre was ok, GRODT was a classic, so I have some hope, but not much that its a dope album.

[limea]

HopfULy this album Will have lots ofg substance n Relatable songss!!!

[Mathers]

''I think it's great - arguably as good as the first album.

Why does he say this with every album he's released after his first one?

[AbramIsaac]

He's still chasing GRODT...

I think that works against him. I mean, in addition to not making great music, saying an album is as good as "X" is a good way to guarantee that people will disagree with that comparison.
